Properly the Galant Sigma, Mitsubishi's rear-drive mid-size sedan and wagon of the late 1970s and 1980s. In Australia it was built in Adelaide, first with Chrysler badges and then as a Mitsubishi after the company bought Chrysler's local arm in 1980, and it became one of that country's best-selling four-cylinder cars. Later the name moved to front-drive models.
